Of course we have. I don't think we got enough runs though. Or perhaps
we were bowled out.

A series of highly unlikely things need to happen if we are to progress.

He certainly took a bite out of England's dreams.

It is possible to go through to the next round (on paper).
One more match to play, which we must win, plus Italy must
win their next two matches.
If that happens, then we should go through on goal difference.

Yes, he's arguably the best striker in the world.

Who's this 'we' the royal we.

I don;t hate the game football, just what it has become how much it costs and the idea that it's so important.

Err, no. I used to think I hated football, but recently I realised that I

You should be an avid follower like I am. The most recent match I watched
was the 66 world cup final.

Niether do I. Went to about 25, mainly Premier League matches, last

Any team south of Stoke can get relegated, any team north of Stoke
promoted to make me happy.

I've never watched a whole match in my life. Barring the games at school
I was forced to be in.

I am however looking at a scores app on my phone just so I'm not
completely out of it at lunchtime when everyone's wibbling about it.

I've never watched a whole match in my life.


I watched the 1966 World Cup final.


I missed that one.

One game of football per lifetime
is quite enough.


Probably a little excessive IMO

I've never actually *been* to a game. I hadn't even been inside a stadium
until the office Christmas party was at one a few years ago.


I used to go to rugby matches when I was at University. However, that
probably had more to do with the drinking afterwards.

Barring the games at school
I was forced to be in.


I bunked off games unless it was something I wanted to do.


Good for a detention at my school, until cross-country running became an
option (5th year I think). The master in charge used to watch us run up
a hill, then go back inside the changing rooms to smoke his pipe until
pupils started to return. Obviously, most of us went no further than the
other side of the brow of the hill, where we waited for the keen ones to
return, then waited a bit more before straggling in.


I am however looking at a scores app on my phone just so I'm not
completely out of it at lunchtime when everyone's wibbling about it.


That makes you a raving fanatic by my standards.

Good for a detention at my school,


One day, there were so few people at Games that they actually bothered
to call the roll, only to discover there were 22 people missing. We
were summoned before the The Head. I bunked off that, too, rightly assuming
that they wouldn't call the roll for that.


I bunked off as my school had a saturday morning session and I was
determined to get that lost time back.
Had to use the time productively to get parental support or at least a
blind eye turned and so did jobs connected with the farm, one joyful
"Sports" afternoon I was collecting logs from some woodland where dad
had previously cut them and bursting out of bracken and Rhodendron
with a Tractor and trailer avoiding a startled headmaster and
accompanying wife and free running dog by about two feet . I
couldn't stop for a chat as there was a risk of getting bogged down.
Summoned to the head next morning the conversation was interesting and
brief." What will your father think of you skipping off school sports"
" He already knows and thinks I'm better off doing something useful
and asked me to tell you that if he finds you walking your dog on our
land without permission and off a lead one of you may get shot."

He never bothered to summon me again.

Coleen Rooney has leapt to the defence of her husband on Twitter, telling
critics that they wouldn't be able to do any better.

That might be true, but I'm sure they could have done the same job for a lot
less money.
